Pluto.
In the research room of the Golden Shield.
All the members of the Richest Group were facing a nutrient nest full of liquid. Inside, there was a broken and naked corpse with closed eyes and no heartbeat.
It was Kaos who had been sacrificed.
"Why doesn't the soul exist!"
"Stupid Boss has clearly developed soul transfer and soul independent survival."
Betty's face was filled with disappointment, and her voice was filled with anger and worry.
"This is something we didn't think of at first."
Archino, who had always been silent, was expressionless with worry in his eyes.
According to the original idea, even if Kaos died, it didn't matter. As long as the soul still existed, a body could be cloned. After all, everyone had cloned bodies, just in case.
Since eating the Soul-Soul Fruit, Kaos had been developing it. His soul could already leave his body to survive for at least ten days to half a month without a problem.
Even if he was killed once, as long as the soul existed, he could enter the cloned body to be reborn, or enter the body of someone else to forcibly seize it to achieve resurrection.
But this move required giving up a lot of things.
That was, changing a body would cause the original body to lose the ability to survive in any environment, and all kinds of physical strength, recovery, and resistance would not be comparable to the original body.
"This stupid man didn't expect that as soon as Eam appeared, all ability users would lose the ability of the Devil Fruit. This caused the Soul-Soul Fruit to not work when he died, so the soul reincarnation failed before it could be carried out."
Stussy's face was cold, facing Kaos' naked body in the nutrient nest, she didn't have the slightest interest.
After all, it wasn't the first time she saw it.
"So now we can only bet on another plan?"
Klokdal smoked his cigar, his eyebrows knitted together.
"The success rate is not very high, it's completely a gamble."
Enel felt that there was not much hope.
Because it was too unrealistic.
"There is no other way at the moment. When we were about to lure out D and Eam, the Boss had already listed all kinds of possible accidents and wrote down the corresponding methods."
"If we can really resurrect, then we can really have no scruples in the future."
"Where did the Boss know these secrets? There are endless solutions that ordinary people can't think of. "
"So the only one in the entire group who knows me is the Boss."
Caesar smiled.
In his opinion, if Kaos changed his profession to become a scientist, his achievements would definitely be higher than his.
That was because there were simply too many unconstrained and unconstrained ideas.
His imagination was something he could never catch up to on horseback.
"Bah!"
"You're still pretending even after you're dead."
Betty swallowed a mouthful of water at the nourishment nest. She loved this man but was speechless at the same time.
He really dared to die.
He wasn't afraid that they would betray him.
This kind of trust really made her melancholy!
"But can I really break the ceiling and become a god if I really die once?"
Klokdal rubbed his chin. He had some doubts about Kaos's craziness.
He recalled that before the war began, Kaos had gathered all of them together and listed many things that could happen.
One of them was that D and Eam would appear, and he would fight them to see how big the gap was.
There was a chance of death, and there was a chance of survival.
If he was still alive, then so be it.
If he died, he also listed the possibilities of resurrection.
One of them was soul transfer, but this idea failed. Who would have thought that all the Devil Fruit abilities would fail as soon as Eam appeared, so this move was over before it even started.
The other was the Netherworld Fruit.
As for whether the Netherworld Fruit could resurrect the dead, they didn't know, but Kaos was 60% sure.
He didn't believe it even if he said it.
This 60% was completely from the Internet. In his previous life, many pirate fans said that the Netherworld Fruit could resurrect people.
Unless it was absolutely necessary, Kaos didn't want to die, nor did he want to gamble with the Netherworld Fruit.
There were too many accidents that could happen.
For example, Stussy and the others betrayed him and didn't snatch the Netherworld Fruit.
For example, the Netherworld Fruit's resurrection was fake.
Or there might be other accidents. As long as one of them happened, Kaos would be done for.
In general, Kaos had overestimated himself and underestimated the strength of D and Eam. He thought that even if he couldn't beat them, he could escape, but he couldn't even escape.
Even if he didn't want to die, he had to die.
Of course, there was another reason. If he really died once, he might be able to open up his Ren and Du meridians and become a god.
The true meaning of life could always stimulate a person's potential.
If he didn't experience real death, how could he become a top man?
There were countless mediocre people, and the reason why those top men became top men was because they had paid a lot of pain and suffering that ordinary people couldn't pay. As long as they survived, they would naturally become top men.
To sum it up in one word: gamble.
In the end, the plan couldn't keep up with the changes. He really didn't expect that Eam's appearance would cause the Devil Fruit within a certain range to fail, and he couldn't escape. It was completely beyond his ability.
The only fortunate thing was that Kaos still had a backup plan.
Even though this backup plan was only 60% sure.
It had to be mentioned here that Gai was brave and resourceful. As long as it was something he wasn't sure about, he would definitely plan it out and act according to the plan.
"Ha ha ~"
"The Boss never plays by the rules. I really don't know if this can break the ceiling!"
"At this point, we can only act according to the plan!"
"The Netherworld Fruit user is the skeleton of the straw hat pirates."
"Now that the straw hat kid has been strangled to death by the Boss, if Luffy can be resurrected, then it must be that skeleton."
"No wonder the Boss wanted to kill the straw hat kid."
"That was expected."
"Whether the straw hat kid can be resurrected or not, we have to keep an eye on the Netherworld Fruit user."
"Caesar, take good care of the Boss' corpse. The original is always better than the clone."
Stussy reminded Caesar that there was a complete clone that looked exactly like Kaos in the nutrition nest not far from this broken body.
As long as the soul was injected, it could be resurrected.
Behind Kaos' clone were the clones of Enel, Klokdal, Archino, and Stussy. Not only did this research lab have clones, but the other research labs also had clones.
"Whoosh ~ Understood!"
"It won't be a problem to preserve it for eight or ten years."
Caesar was very confident.
He was familiar with this.
He could guarantee that it would be the same ten or twenty years later.
"I really don't understand what the Boss is thinking. Since he already expected this to happen, why didn't he let Xiao Ai-chan hack it? It can easily regress by a few years. It won't be so bad that even the corpse is broken. "
Betty complained.
Looking at this broken corpse now, it was really ugly. No matter how she looked at it, it was not pleasing to the eye.
Xiao Ai-chan only needed to hack it, and the corpse would regress for a while. Wouldn't it be better if all four limbs were intact?
"Who knows what he's thinking?"
The others were also speechless.
"How about we split the stupid Boss' inheritance and go our separate ways?"
Betty rolled her eyes and made a joke.
"Stop fooling around. I don't want to hear something like this again, even if it's a joke."
Stussy turned her head and looked at Betty calmly. Her tone was very serious.
The rest of the people just smiled.
They didn't take it seriously at all.
The current richest group was no longer the same as when they had just joined the group. At that time, they didn't have a sense of belonging. Now that more than twenty years had passed, although they would have conflicts from time to time and no one was willing to give in to others, they were already like family.
They couldn't do without one.
If one person really betrayed them now, then the others would definitely love and hate him as much as they loved him.
The stupid man who forced them to join this group in the beginning had personally used his death to prove his trust in them. Even real relatives and friends might not have such trust.
This group was no longer just one person's, but everyone's.
It was that simple.
This was also the reason why Kaos challenged D and Eam even though he knew that he might die.
Because he understood the feelings of Stussy and others.
Otherwise, they would never take such a risk.
"Okay, okay! Then the next step is to keep an eye on the Revolutionary Army and look for the Gold-Gold Fruit and Soul-Soul Fruit? "
Betty waved her hand and didn't care at all.
"Nonsense."
"Let's go."
Soon.
Everyone left, and only Stussy looked at the nutrition nest alone.
"What if I lose the bet!"
Stussy muttered to herself. She didn't show anything on the surface, but she was very uneasy.
She could also see the uneasiness and worry in Betty and the others' hearts, but no one showed it on their faces.
